Woj elected to simply never mention anything about our 28th pick. Announced LA with Nance at 27 then went straight to BK at 29.

Only pick in 29 so far he hasn't said anything about. I think we pissed off the Woj.

Hopefully there will be some crow to be served moving forward.


That's why you aren't an NBA gm. Let the people who are paid to make decisions pick the players.

You could flip the order of the two Cs picks and it would fit predictions better. Overall, decent draft, no fireworks yet.

Well, I know that a lot of people in this thread have given up on the Celtics offseason after tonight. But, Fortunately our Front Office hasn't.

If we still are trying to sign two Max Guys, Avery Bradley will have to be moved to make that happen. I think these guys will have a shot to make an impact.

He's kind of redundant with Young but he's a great player. Now I want Looney.

He's a lot more polished offensively than Young.

If we can get Kevon Looney or Montrezl Harrell in the 2nd, home run.

I like Upshaw at 33. Hunter was a great pick. Pelton the ESPN mathematician had him in his top 10.

6'6, 6'11 wingspan. Our first true shooting guard in a long time. Sick range. Much more excited for him than Rozier.

Another freaking guard, what a nightmare.. So it's Smart, Thomas, Bradley, and guaranteed contracts for Rozier and Hunter.

I think they gave it to Shams to break. Maybe didn't like the Boogie article?

Nothing redundant about Hunter on this team.

We now have a shooter.
